A hot/cold aisle containment system includes a frame structure, at least one electronic equipment enclosure installed at least partially within the frame structure, and a header panel assembly. The frame structure is adapted to be at least partially covered by one or more panels to define an interior space and includes a vertical member and a horizontal member. The header panel assembly is installed between a top of the at least one electronic equipment enclosure and the horizontal member of the frame structure to prevent circulation of air above the enclosure. The header panel assembly includes a main panel and at least one seal.

1. A hot/cold aisle containment system, comprising: (a) a frame structure adapted to be at least partially covered by one or more panels to define an interior space, the frame structure including a first vertical member, a second vertical member, and a horizontal member, wherein the horizontal membe
1. A hot/cold aisle containment system, comprising: (a) a frame structure adapted to be at least partially covered by one or more panels to define an interior space, the frame structure including a first vertical member, a second vertical member, and a horizontal member, wherein the horizontal member is supported directly by the first and second vertical members;(b) at least one electronic equipment enclosure installed at least partially within the frame structure such that the first and second vertical members are on opposite sides of the at least one electronic equipment enclosure and the horizontal member of the frame structure extends from one side of the at least one electronic equipment enclosure to the other;(c) a header panel assembly installed between, and supported by, a top of the at least one electronic equipment enclosure and the horizontal member of the frame structure to prevent circulation of air above the enclosure, the header panel assembly including a main panel and a first seal; and(d) a side seal assembly installed between a side of the at least one electronic equipment enclosure and the first vertical member of the frame structure to prevent circulation of air around the enclosure, wherein the side seal assembly includes a vertical support bracket and a second seal, the vertical support bracket being adapted to support the side seal assembly from the first vertical member of the frame structure. 2. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the first seal is disposed along the lower edge of the main panel and adapted to be held in place between the bottom of the main panel and a top surface of the at least one electronic equipment enclosure. 3. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the first seal is disposed along a side edge of the main panel and adapted to be held in place between the side of the main panel and an adjacent structure. 4. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the header panel assembly further includes a fixed bracket adapted to be supported by the horizontal member of the frame structure, and wherein the main panel is adapted to be adjustably coupled to the fixed bracket. 5. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 4, wherein the header panel assembly further includes at least one clamp for retaining a portion of the main panel against a portion of the fixed bracket. 6. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein a V-shaped flange is disposed at an edge of the main panel, and wherein the first seal is disposed at least partially in a groove defined by the V-shaped flange. 7. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein a generally perpendicular flange is disposed at an edge of the main panel, and wherein the first seal is disposed along an outer edge of the generally perpendicular flange. 8. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein an angled flange is disposed at an edge of the main panel, and wherein the first seal is disposed along an outer edge of the angled flange. 9. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the first seal is compressible. 10. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the first seal is a brush seal. 11. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the first seal is a deflectable blade seal. 12. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the vertical support bracket includes one or more horizontal slots to facilitate lateral adjustment thereof. 13. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein a V-shaped flange is disposed along an edge of the vertical support bracket, and wherein the first seal is disposed at least partially in a groove defined by the V-shaped flange. 14. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the side seal assembly is adapted to extend from the top to the bottom of the frame structure. 15. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 1, wherein the main panel is mounted to the horizontal member and adapted to be adjustable in a vertical direction relative to the horizontal member. 16. A hot/cold aisle containment system, comprising: (a) a frame structure adapted to be at least partially covered by one or more panels to define an interior space, the frame structure including a vertical member;(b) at least one electronic equipment enclosure installed at least partially within the frame structure; and(c) a side seal assembly installed between a side of the at least one electronic equipment enclosure and the vertical member of the frame structure to prevent circulation of air around the enclosure;(d) wherein the side seal assembly includes a vertical support bracket and at least one seal, the vertical support bracket being adapted to support the side seal assembly from the vertical member of the frame structure. 17. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 16, wherein the vertical support bracket includes one or more horizontal slots to facilitate lateral adjustment thereof. 18. The hot/cold aisle containment system of claim 16, wherein a V-shaped flange is disposed along an edge of the vertical support bracket, and wherein the at least one seal is disposed at least partially in a groove defined by the V-shaped flange.
